Treasure Gathering Immortal Furnace

"Gu Xin, go and kill that brat. I'll go and meet Fellow Daoist Tianhuo," Xiao Jin said calmly as he walked through the air, holding a folding fan.

Without a word, Gu Xin instantly transformed into a streak of light and sped off in the direction Lu Fan had fled. But just as he moved, the Heavenly Fire Ancestor suddenly waved his sleeve, and a large burst of flames erupted, instantly enveloping Gu Xin and forming a huge fireball in mid-air.

"Don't pretend I don't exist! Today, none of you can touch a disciple of my Xuan Yang Sword Sect!" Ancestor Tian Huo roared angrily, his eyes wide with fury.

"Fellow Daoist Tianhuo, you have quite the nerve. Do you really intend to fight two against one?" Xiao Jin's face darkened. Then, he suddenly fanned his folding fan, and a fire dragon materialized out of thin air, rushing toward Ancestor Tianhuo.

"I've long wanted to spar with Fellow Daoist Xiao!" Ancestor Tianhuo raised his hand and flung out a crimson longsword, his aura suddenly exploding!

But that wasn't all. After the Heavenly Fire Ancestor unleashed his natal magic weapon, he raised two fingers to mobilize spiritual energy, and his eyes immediately turned crimson. It was unknown what kind of fire-type secret technique he had activated, but the flames surrounding his body immediately became even deeper red!

boom!

As the Heavenly Fire Sword was unleashed, a sword aura mixed with deep red flames slashed towards the Fire Dragon's face!

lb!

With a deafening roar, the fire dragon was instantly cleaved in two!

At this moment, Gu Xin, who was trapped in the fireball, raised his hand and released the five ancient treasure beads. One of the blue beads immediately burst out with a large amount of water vapor, which extinguished the raging flames almost instantly.

It seems that these five-colored beads are some kind of ancient treasure with the five elements of metal, wood, water, fire, and earth, and can restrain cultivators of any element.

After breaking through the encirclement of flames, Gu Xin still wanted to chase after Lu Fan, but how could the Heavenly Fire allow him to have his way? With a flash, it rushed towards Gu Xin.

Seeing the heavenly fire rushing towards him, Gu Xin was startled. He immediately released the earth-yellow bead, which then appeared out of thin air as a large area of ​​rocks, layered together to form a rock shield.

Tianhuo also ruthlessly swung his sword, unleashing dozens of crimson sword energies that peeled away the layers of the rock shield.

Seeing that Gu Xin was unable to defend, Xiao Jin, who was in the distance, no longer held back. He twirled his folding fan and suddenly fanned it, forming a fiery tornado that rushed directly towards the Heavenly Fire!

boom!

A violent explosion rang out, barely forcing the Heavenly Fire back. At this moment, Gu Xin's face was also ashen. After all, his natal magic weapon was being nurtured in Wang Qingzhu's body. Now, relying on his ancient magic weapon to fight against the Heavenly Fire, he was clearly at a disadvantage.

"I'll hold him off. Don't get entangled with him anymore. If we delay any longer, that kid will go back to the Xuan Yang Sword Sect," Xiao Jin said as he flashed over.

"Hmm," Gu Xin responded, deciding to ignore the Heavenly Fire.

"Heh! If I can't even hold back two pieces of trash like you, what face do I have to serve as the Supreme Elder of the Xuan Yang Sword Sect!" Tian Huo sneered, flipped his hand, and a small, golden city wall appeared in his palm.

"Ancient Treasure Heavenly Gate Pass!" Gu Xin's expression immediately changed, clearly recognizing the golden city wall.

"Fellow Daoist Tianhuo, are you planning to fight us to the death?" Xiao Jin was also startled by Tianhuo's actions.

Without hesitation, Tianhuo raised his hand and flung out the golden city wall. In an instant, the city wall rapidly expanded, becoming like a magnificent chasm that stretched across the sky!

The city wall then rapidly deformed, eventually becoming a square prison, with the roof and foundation fitting together perfectly, trapping the three people inside.

And outsiders are completely unable to probe the interior with their divine sense.

Lady Luan, who was standing on the Wangyue Sect's flying boat at this moment, was also shocked by Tianhuo's Heavenly Gate Closure. She seemed not to have expected Tianhuo to do such a thing.

Boom boom boom!

Immediately afterwards, Lady Luan saw violent explosions coming from inside the city wall, and the city wall was shaken by the blasts!

This ancient treasure, Tianmen Pass, is a legacy treasure of the Xuan Yang Sword Sect, specifically designed for use in life-or-death battles. Once released, it cannot be opened for a short period of time, whether from the inside or the outside.

Just as the Heavenly Fire Ancestor, Gu Xin, and Xiao Jin were fighting inside the Heavenly Gate Pass.

Whoosh whoosh whoosh...

Several figures suddenly emerged from the Li Huo Cave, including Chu Lingxue, Song Zhiyuan, Wan Yang, and others.

After Chu Lingxue flew out, she glanced at the magnificent Tianmen Pass in the sky and seemed to have guessed what was going on. She immediately rushed towards her own flying boat.

"Ling Xue, did you get the things?" Madam Luan asked.

"Got it," Chu Lingxue nodded.

"Let's go," Madam Luan said, not intending to stay any longer.

Although her Wangyue Sect and Xuanyang Sword Sect had some connections, they hadn't reached the point where she would help other Nascent Soul cultivators fight, so she immediately controlled the flying boat to take Chu Lingxue away.

Not far away, Song Zhiyuan landed back on the flying boat, his gaze also drawn to Tianmen Pass.

Song Zhiming, standing to the side, sneered, "Heh heh, Nascent Soul stage monsters fighting, let them fight, it'd be better if they all died!"

"Let's go too!" After saying that, Song Zhiyuan immediately urged the flying boat to transform into a long rainbow and leave, fearing that things might change if they were too late.

Following closely behind were Wan Yang and Steward Ma.

Xuanxuzi had been observing the situation from beginning to end. Only after seeing the two return safely did he breathe a sigh of relief and ask, "How did the treasure hunt go?"

"Reporting to Ancestor, on this treasure hunt, the two of us only obtained one ancient treasure," Wan Yang shook his head and said.

"Why is there only one?" Xuanxuzi seemed a little dissatisfied.

"Most of them were obtained by Song Zhiyuan and Lu Fan," Wan Yang said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Xuanxuzi was slightly startled: "Lu Fan? How many items did this kid get?"

"Three items," Wan Yang said, bowing his head.

"Three pieces? How could he get three pieces? What are you two good for!" Xuanxuzi was clearly incredulous.

"Ancestor, Junior Brother Lu's cultivation level doesn't seem to have come from the Initiation Ceremony at all. He killed Gu Chen first, then went after Gu Shuo, and even exchanged several blows with Song Zhiyuan without being defeated. His strength is extremely high!" Deacon Ma said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Xuanxuzi's expression shifted between light and dark. Clearly, this disciple, whom he had once considered a good-for-nothing, had now thoroughly humiliated him.

However, Xuanxuzi did not show much regret, saying, "No matter how strong they are, they are only at the Core Formation stage. If they do not enter the Nascent Soul stage, they will remain as insignificant as ants. They are not yet at the level that I should take seriously."

Seeing that Xuanxuzi was still being stubborn, Steward Ma was quite helpless. If his ancestor had been willing to help Lu Fan back then, such a powerful Core Formation cultivator would not have fallen into the Xuanyang Sword Sect.

But it's too late to say anything now.

"Let's go back to the sect," Xuanxuzi said, no longer hesitating, and immediately led the two away.

Of all the cultivators present, only the Blood Longevity Old Monster, a Nascent Soul cultivator, remained observing. But a moment later, Su Meier, who had fled, and the cultivator surnamed Wang also emerged in a disheveled state.

"Master..." The cultivator surnamed Wang flew onto the flying boat and bowed somewhat awkwardly.

"Hmph, judging from your pathetic state, I knew you didn't get the treasure. Where is the Ghostly Old Ghost?" Blood Longevity Old Monster snorted and asked.

"Master! Senior brother was killed by that bitch from the Wangyue Sect! You must avenge him!" Su Meier cried out immediately.
